A sunday, a spanish sunday. Families picknicking in the open, a picknick is always in the open no ? But again too much wind, from, you guessed it, the west.

We left early to check Toix, but too much west, too tricky.

Pascal and Maggie, two girlies left today. I was happily surprised by their greed to get in the air, and all the time being keen to go fly. Their skills are there, I could tell.
I do guide daily and this for over 7 years now. I get low-airtime pilots, to comp pilots coming down to fly or train for bigger stuff.
I was very quickly confident in taking the girls to the hills to do some thermalling.

Once a decision was made to turn into the thermals, I sensed no nervousness, I only saw smooth turns. And when I drove down I could only see happy faces after happy landings. Unfortunately your airtime wasn't doubled, due to the weather.

I hope to see you again, and fly together. See you later Pascal, Maggie, Dave and Ron.
